Bias FX 2 with Line 6 Helix rack

[teamgoon]

Hello everyone,

 

I'm trying the Bias FX 2 demo.  So far I haven't been able to set it up with my Helix rack.  Does anyone have experience using both?  I tried creating a patch similar to the way I created one for Amplitube 4 but with this patch I hear both Bias FX and the actual clean patch from the Helix.  Does anyone have a patch setup that they can share that works with Bias FX 2?

 

Thanks,

Ron

Hi, you need to use a blank preset on Helix, and set the output to "USB 1/2". Then in Bias, configure it so it's using ASIO Helix as the audio input, using USB 1 (it doesn't need a stereo input). For Bias' output, use USB1/2 on ASIO Helix as well. If you do this, you should only hear the processed signal from Bias.

If you're hosting Bias in a DAW, then the same advice applies there too, but you'll be setting up the DAW itself to use ASIO Helix as the input and output, and then you'll route those same ins and outs to the Bias plugin.
